Eating out? Behave yourself, calorie-wise
- Don't offer food as a reward.
- Eat high-fat foods and sauces sparingly. Consider sharing orders of french fries.
- Avoid sodas. Choose water or low-fat milk.
- Consider removing the bread from a sandwich; choose whole wheat or a wrap.
- Avoid "double" anything (double ice cream dips, double burgers).
- Don't be shy about requesting substitutions. Order a side of veggies, or a small salad rather than fries.
- Watch the portion size.
- Parents should set examples by making healthful menu choices.
FINAL WORD
Rapper Fat Joe on why he performs:
"It's not about the money for me. It's not about the fame for me. It's about my peers respecting my contributions to hip-hop, 30 years from now, looking back at hip-hop and saying, 'You know what? This dude was really amazing.' "
